Jeff Gordon tries to sell motor oil to unsuspecting customers

NASCAR drivers might not be the most recognizable athletes in the world, after all they do have to spend most of their time competing wearing helmets.

But you would think that if Jeff Gordon was in an auto supply store, standing near a cardboard cutout of himself, trying to shill bottles of Quaker State with his photo on them, he'd be recognized.

But that's not always the case. Check out this video where a customer seems to get angry when Gordon insists he purchase Quaker State.

The clip is from a one-hour television special of "I Get That A Lot," which will air Wednesday, Jan. 9 at 8 p.m. on CBS.

The show will feature celebrities tricking everyday citizens in cases of supposed "mistaken identity." Working ordinary jobs, the celebrities confuse customers who can't decide if it's the actual celebrity or a look-alike.
